Summary:

We are being exposed to the smartphones and internet more than we know. For some of us, it has become like an addition to checking for notifications every few minutes. This leads to losing focus on the work, being unproductive and many other negative habits.

For kids this is even worse, the internet is open and you can use it for good things as well as bad. So it’s best for us to take precautions to prevent the kids from being exposed to the dark side of the internet.

Keeping that in concern many developers created apps like keylogger and parental controls. These apps let you keep a tab on the activity of your kid, employee or any person that you care about.

iKeyMonitor Android Keylogger is one of such app/service that will let you do all of the things we mentioned above. Now, let’s get right into the review and how to set it up.

Best Android Keylogger App for Android: iKeyMonitor Review

What is iKeyMonitor Android Keylogger?

From the name you can get an idea that it is able to track and keep the logs of all the keys and buttons that you have pressed on your Android device. It includes the on-screen keyboard, just in case if you are wondering.

This is not it. It can also track activities of different apps, live location, call history and many other fascinating things. We will discuss it in the feature section.

Features

We already discussed the iOS version of iKeyMonitor in our previous article. So this may look similar but it has more features than the iOS version. This is because iOS has a closed environment for developers while Android is open source. Hence there is a great chance that it can do lots of the things that iOS cannot do ever.

Believe me, we are not in the end. It has lots of other features that you can explore for yourself. 😀

How does it work?

After setting up the iKeyMonitor Android Keylogger on any Android Device, you can log in to the online portal provided. There you will find all the details about the Android device that we have mentioned earlier in the features section.

It means all the data that is being collected from the Android device is being sent to the iKeyMonitor Cloud regularly and being stored securely. For more information regarding the Privacy & Terms of Service, kindly refer to the official documentation of iKeyMonitor.
